Foal Patrol, an initiative of the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame, has partnered with the Paulick Report in Season 5 to bring you closer to featured mares and foals and to ask farm staff your questions about their care and management over the course of the season.
In this episode featuring Repeta and her Volatile filly born on April 1 at Three Chimneys Farm in Versailles, Ky., we ask Three Chimneys' Chris Baker, “What is the placenta and why is it important?”
For a chance to have one of your questions asked in an upcoming Foal Patrol episode on the Paulick Report, email your question to foalpatrol@racingmuseum.net. Be sure to let us know if your question is for a specific Season 5 mare.
The new Season 5 Education Site provides a platform to respond to viewers' questions, share information about horse care and management from breeding through retirement, and spotlight efforts across the industry to provide the best possible care for Thoroughbreds before, during, and after their racing careers. In partnership with industry collaborators, we will add new content to the Foal Patrol Education Site for viewers of all ages from now through June at foalpatrol.com/education.
Your Stories gives viewers the chance to share photos of their own mares and foals, selfies with Foal Patrol's mascot, Smokey, and stories about what Foal Patrol means to them. Send your photos and stories to foalpatrol@racingmuseum.net for a chance to be featured on foalpatrol.com/education/your-stories.
Since its first season in 2018, people all over the world have engaged with Foal Patrol's live webcam series for a behind-the-scenes look at what daily life is like for in-foal mares and foals.
